Pathways is a youth event in the Episcopal Diocese of Northern California, open to all youth finishing grades 7-12. Join Bishop Megan and young people from around our diocese as we learn from the experiences of those in Butte County and explore the aftermath of the Camp Fire. Together we will deepen our awareness of God’s creation, experience Christ’s reconciling love, and learn more about social justice and ecological sustainability. 

Pathways is a pilgrimage that unites youth to one another and to God, equipping them to be agents of truth, peace and reconciliation. Led by the young adults who started Pathways, we will spend the week together sharing meals, worshipping, having fun and traveling as pilgrims.

This fifth year of Pathways we journey to Butte County where we will explore matters of social and eco-justice as we visit the local congregations and communities supporting those who have suffered and been displaced due to the Camp Fire. We will also explore historical indigenous sites and grow in our awareness of the impact that care for creation has had and continues to have on people of every land.
